Dez and James did a GREAT job. Professional and super fast. Very happy with their service.
Cody, Seth, Tavore, James, and Josh worked solid from 9:15am to 6:45pm with the most positive attitudes and unceasing energy. They were all friendly and cared about doing the job well, right, and often asked if we were happy with how things were going, if anything needed to shift to another location. They were…
I’ve been in my house for 30 years and I’ve been trying out different moving companies to see who I was going to allow to move my entire house. I’ve been having mini moves from my house to my storage unit just to see how the company performed and hands-down Absolute Moving Company is truly the best. Cody and Javare…
Absolute Moving company is my "Go To" company for our moving needs. Three years since my lasy move and still providing exceptional service. This time I had the pleasure of working with Matt, James and Trell. They were professional and respectful. Everything was wrapped and moved with no scratches or breakage. Well worth the price.
It was my second time using Absolute Moving, and they did not disappoint. Dez, Tony and Jay were a pleasure to work with. They took great care of my furniture and relocated all items to the correct rooms in the new house. I will definitely use again for my next move.
We had an amazing experience with the folks at Absolute Moving! Javare, Cody and Steve could not have been more friendly, professional and detail oriented. They got the job done quickly and had us out in no time. Thanks again guys!!!
I would definitely recommend this company for your moving needs. The whole process from planning to the end was stress free and smooth. The price was very reasonable as well. Cody and Javare did an awesome job with caring for our things and making sure to be careful. If needed, I’ll be using them again!

James and Red did an excellent job moving me out of my apartment.
The packing crew and the moving crew were amazing! I have moved nine times, and this was the best experience I've ever had! The guys were polite/friendly, professional, and attentive.

This was the second time I've had Absolute Moving Co. move me.

Absolute Moving was the best company I have had so far, this has been our 4th full home move and they rank number one. Friendly, kind, went the extra mile for moving items and made the process much less stressful. Across the process we had Dez, Jay (what an anomaly this one was :)), Charles, Tony, Seth, Alonzo, Red…
Absolute Moving is absolutely the best! From 1st contact to estimate to answering questions to final review and then actual move Absolute handled everything in a professional, honest way. The moving crew was phenomenal during a “heat dome” period. The crew chief, Seth, was a pleasure to work with and can’t thank…
Absolute Moving Company deserves more than 5 stars. Everyone dreads a move, but James and Red were my actual heroes. They were fast, efficient, and very pleasant to work with. I can't stress enough how easy they made this entire process. Highly recommend!
We hired Absolute to do our move and they were excellent. Full home move (including a heavy piano) with a 40 minute drive in between (Virginia Beach to Suffolk) in less than 6 hours. The 4 gentlemen worked hard and continuously, and were extremely courteous to our requests. On top of that, they seemed to enjoy their…
This is Ms Owens and I just wanted to leave Red & James a five-star review because they were very organized, fast, and professional. I will continue to refer people to Absolute Moving Comany because they're the best. Sorry my phone couldn't scan your QR Code. Hope this review is ok.

Thank you Absolute Moving Company. You came out and gave me an estimate within days of me contacting you. I had some changes on delivery location and date.

Cody, Tyler, James and Jaucre were our movers and did an awesome job! Finished quickly.
Cody and his 3 man crew showed up on time, worked like a week oiled machine and got the job done so quickly! I will absolutely recommend and use this company in the future. So impressed after all the nightmare stories I've heard about professional movers.
The folks at Absolute made moving my elderly parents a breeze. I can’t imagine it could have gone any smoother. They showed up on time, took extreme care handling delicate items, and communicated well when they had questions. I’ll never use another mover in the Hampton Roads area.
Absolute Moving Company was recommended to me by a friend in Bay Colony. After reading all the reviews, I reached out for a quote. John came to the house to look at our home and contents, asked a lot of questions, and later sent a quote based on our needs (packing and moving). It ended up being a two-day endeavor…
We just moved from a two story house to an apartment with a few big pieces of furniture. The crew we had from Absolute did an amazing job.

Absolute did a fantastic job for us! Would 100% recommend. Not one single item was damaged and they moved everything quickly and set it back up. These guys are awesome!
On time, courteous, attention to detail. Made sure all the furniture was protected properly. Moved into the next place with no issues. Recommend them to anyone.
I am so grateful to have had such an awesome crew, pack, load, unload and everything is in place. Moving can be so stressful, for me only unpacking the boxes. Thanks y'all 😍😍😍
Had some nightmare movers from other companies, but the crew that came out was amazing! Highly recommend their services. They treated my items like they were priceless. It’s not just stuff, these things have memories and we work hard to buy them so having a crew take care of the furniture was very thoughtful!
Seth and Javare were exceptional!!! They were very professional, and made sure everything was in its proper place, took great care of our things while packing and unpacking the truck. I can’t say enough about our experience! Absolute Moving is a great company. Thank you for all your help fellas!
On time and work completed with no hiccups. Great crew. Dez, Javari, and GP really know what they are doing and worked well together. They completed the move well within the estimated time. I will definitely request them for future moves.
We were incredibly wary of hiring a moving company because of the horror stories I’ve heard after speaking to two other moving companies those fears seemed to be justified. That was until I called Absolute Moving Company and spoke with John. He put me at ease immediately. Weather was bad for our planned day and they…

Every team member (Matt, Dez, Lamar, Sean, Red and Eric) was polite and readily answered questions I had, as well as when…
This move went the way you would expect a move SHOULD go. Of the 5 times I've moved in my life (this time downsizing from 5 br house to A 2 br condo) this was the least stressful, most professional moving experience I have ever had. The packing they helped with (I have TONS of antique glass) was done with loving…

Great moving company! Seth, Trell and Ty handled our move today and they did a great job. They are professional, punctual and efficient. I highly recommend this company.
We have moved three times in the last decade, and this is by far the best experience we've had. The movers were professional, affable, and detail-oriented. I don't plan on moving again, but I would highly recommend them to anyone I know looking for an exceptional moving company. The prices were also fair. We also…
After 46 years of living in my house, I decided it was time to downsize. Fortunately, I moved only two blocks away and was able to stay on my preferred neighborhood. Matt, Trell and Curtis were on time, very professional and took great cate of my things.
Absolute did a great job moving us today from storage to our new home in Moyock. The cost was reasonable. Cody, Bobby and Rod worked fast as a team and were very efficient.

Very fast and reliable service! Would recommend to others needing to move in the area!
David chose not to respond. Told my wife that he would come by didn't even show up. Didn't even respond to the emails and it's ashamed. We did business with them last year. They didn't want any money. David is not a good employee. He lost almost $1,500 order. He doesn't care.
These folks are absolutely amazing. I can’t recommend them highly enough. Very professional and helpful. Very courteous. And kept their spirits up during a rainstorm.
I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience today! The 3 gentleman, Rodney, Cody, & Jackson showed pure professionalism, efficiency, and expertise every step of the way. I had zero worries about my furniture getting damaged. They turned a stressful situation into a smooth, seamless, and quick project. 10/10!!
This is the second time I've used Absolute moving and they never fail to impress. Cody, Rodney, and John were fast, efficient, and careful with our belongings. I can't recommend these guys enough. If you have a move coming up, do yourself a favor and hire Absolute. See if you can get these three guys, they won't let you down.
This company is awesome! They were on time Gave spot on estimate Extremely professional and move extremely fast! Across city move and they included assemble dis in the price.
